I've only had three of those. Perhaps you can make suggestions based on these rankings.
1/4 cask: a bit too medicinal for me. I won't buy this again.
10 yo: more balanced than the above and a beautiful, smokey whisky.
10 yo cask strength: I love this whisky. It has more malt to balance the smoke and iodine. It is well worth the extra $5 at Lukas in KC. Following your advice a few months back, I've added the power of a bit of Laphroaig to cheaper whiskies and transformed them to smooth, beautiful, smokey whiskies. The Laphroaig takes over in a very good way. I really like Ledaig 10 and Ardbeg, but for the money, Laphroaig cask strength is my go to Islay.
